Pasd Microcast #64 We Survived The Snow
We survived our first hike in snowy, icy, and very cold conditions. On this day, the whole team rose to the occasion dressed properly, waling carefully, helping each other, we made a steep descent and arrived at our first coffee stop of the day. With this team, coffee are always a welcome treat after a hard hike.This trek is a fundraiser for the Parkinson’s Association of San Diego so. If you are so inclined, feel free to click here or on the link below to donate on behalf of one of the hikers. All the donations stay within the San Diego Parkinson’s community…all the expenses for this trek were paid by the individual hikers.Thanks for listening and we look forward to sharing this trek to Italy’s Dolomite Mountains through these short podcasts.https://parkinsonsassociation.org/sponsor-a-hiker/

And for someone who occasionally has issues just walking with Parkinson’s, this is one of the most powerful things I’ve ever seen.I try to put it into words in this short episode, but please click the link below to watch the short, 20-second video of Alex and I running the last few meters of the last hike on the last day.Jeffhttps://player.vimeo.com/video/754336046To read Alex and Becky’s story and why they did this, their second Power Over Parkinson’s Trek, and to donate to the Parkinson’s Association of San Diego in honor of Alex, click here:https://parkinsonsassociation.org/donations/alexander-becky-trepte/
